Localization and Gluing of Topological Amplitudes
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea
We develop a gluing algorithm for Gromov-Witten invariants of toric Calabi-Yau threefolds based on localization and gluing graphs. The main building block of this algorithm is a ge…
Orientifolds, Unoriented Instantons and Localization
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea, Aalok Misra
We consider world-sheet instanton effects in N=1 string orientifolds of noncompact toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. We show that unoriented closed string topological amplitudes can be…
Large N Duality for Compact Calabi-Yau Threefolds
Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu, Bogdan Florea
We study geometric transitions for topological strings on compact Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties. Large N duality predicts an equivalence between topological open and…
